The Witch Queen

After the exploits described in Prospero's Children and
The Dragon Charmer, Fernanda Capel, the beautiful young witch,
is finally all grown up. She has accepted her Gift and that she
must use it to fight evil. And she will need all of her powers very
soon. Morgus, the evil sorceress who Fern thought she had defeated,
turns out not
to be dead at all. Morgus is back in England and is determined to
destroy Fern and everyone she loves. But things are even more
complicated and dangerous for Fern. Azmordis, the ancient evil
spirit, is determined to possess Fern's soul and will do anything
to obtain it. With the help of her brother Will, her best friend Mobberly,
and the ancient wizard Ragginbone, Fern must put her considerable
powers to the ultimate test; the penalty for failure is unthinkable.

The Witch Queen is a thought-provoking, rich and exciting
fantasy story. Drawing on Arthurian and Atlantean myths and
legends, Jan Siegel creates a modern day England which is at
once familiar and yet magical. Fern herself is a fascinating character
who is finally growing into the powers that she exhibited in
childhood, and her transformation is compelling to watch.
This is an outstanding series, and Jan Siegel is a talent to watch.
